How to Remove Car Wraps

Car wraps are not only a great way for a business to advertise their services, but can also be a great way for a person to make some extra money just by driving around. Car wraps are designed to last 3 to 5 years, if they are properly cared for. So, what do you do when it is time to remove the wrap from your car?

Things You'll Need

• Heat gun
• Rag
• Citrus based cleaner

Instructions

1. Heat a corner of the wrap with a heat gun. Continue until it starts to separate from the car.

2. Slowly peel the car wrap away from the car, while continuing to heat the wrap with the heat gun, as you go.

3. Keep heating and peeling until the entire wrap is removed from the car.

4. Remove any residue from the wrap with a citrus based cleaner and rag.

Tips & Warnings

• If you plan to repaint your car once the wrap is removed, use paint thinner to help remove the residue left by the wrap.
